A method of hepatography in dogs is described in which contrast medium is infused via the external jugular and superior and inferior venae cavae and hepatic veins. Hepatograms taken by infusing different contrast media in the normal liver and in the liver subjected to parenchymatous damage are also analyzed in detail.

Background: Hepatic venous outflow obstruction (Budd-Chiari syndrome) is frequently encountered as a cause of portal hypertension at our centre.

Methods And Results: We studied the clinical presentation, therapeutic modalities and outcome of 71 patients with hepatic venous outflow obstruction between 1992 and 1997. Twenty-seven patients presented with acute disease, while 44 had chronic presentation.

Aim: To study hepatic function after cholecystectomy and the role of absorptive-excretory function of the liver and hormonal factors in development of postcholecystectomy syndrome.

Materials And Methods: 106 patients long after cholecystectomy for cholelithiasis were examined for absorptive-excretory function of the liver and blood hormones (hydrocortisone, insulin, gastrin, thyroxine, triiodothyronine, thyrotropine). I-131-bengal-rose hepatography, dynamic hepatobiliscintigraphy with brommeside-Tc-99m, radioimmunoassay were employed.

In 47 patients with gastric ulcer disease, the absorptive-excretive function of the liver after resection of the stomach was studied by means of bengal rosy radioactive (bengal-rose131I). All the patients examined demonstrated a decrease in the absorptive function of the liver, which was more pronounced in creation of Hofmeister-Finsterer anastomosis. In hepatography with the use of bengal-rose 131I, the insignificant disorders in the liver function were noted, which couldn't be detected by means of biochemical methods of investigation.

A method of transcutaneous transhepatic injection hepatography with local fine-needle anesthesia was developed. Its informative value is shown in investigations of the intrahepatic veins, lymphatic system and their interrelationships at the sinusoidal level. The method is noninvasive and can be performed in a therapy department.

Application of Stewart-Hamilton's formula to the activity-time curve recorded over a left ventricular region of interest following an intravenous bolus injection of a radioactive indicator in gamma camera hepatography has resulted in a new method for determination of the clearance rate constant of the indicator (i.e. the ratio of the clearance to the plasma volume).
